If you have sealant in the wrong colour for the frame and draughts coming in around windows and doors, we can help.
Around Ashingdon, conservatories, garden rooms and patio doors are often part of the house. Their glazing joints and frame seals are as much a part of the job as the windows.

What happens on the day
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we do not rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes a morning for a couple of windows and a door. A visit to Ashingdon is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We check how each frame can be reached safely.
- Old, cracked mastic is removed completely, along with any loose debris.
- Frame and wall are cleaned and must be dry before sealing.
- Backing rod fills deep voids and the sealant goes in on top.
- The joint is shaped to shed water and the area tidied.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Tell us about any water getting in

Window mastic in Ashingdon: local notes
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. Historic houses like Southchurch Hall (about 4.9 miles south) are a reminder that the area around Ashingdon has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic.
Letting a property close to Hockley station? Then sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first. Homes close to Church of St Andrew include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.
Ashingdon is about 1 mile north of Rochford, in Essex. If you need window mastic in Ashingdon, it’s easy to get a quote: please phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email. We are based in Crawley and cover Essex, Ashingdon included. We cover 644 towns and villages across Essex. We also work in Chelmsford, about 13 miles from Ashingdon.
We work across the SS4 postcode area for window mastic and the streets around it.

What the job involves on each surface
Patio & French doors
The joints around patio doors run a long way, top, sides and threshold. The threshold and the bottom corners take the most water, so they get particular care.
Aluminium frames
Aluminium moves with heat, and the frames are often slimmer than uPVC. A neat, narrow bead in a colour to match keeps the clean look.
Why deal with it now?
Getting a straight, even bead on an outside frame takes practice, especially on upper floors. A professional job is cut out properly, backed where needed and finished neatly, using a product chosen for the frame and wall. Around Ashingdon, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, and that’s a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
Why Ashingdon customers choose us
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- Neat joints and a tidy finish

Common questions in Ashingdon
Is Ashingdon within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you do window mastic in Ashingdon?
Yes, Ashingdon is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes, often. Several properties can be quoted together, and between tenancies is a good time for the work.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Will it make a mess?
We keep the work tidy. Nearby surfaces are protected, and we clear up when we are done.
Where are you based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Ashingdon and the rest of Essex, along with the rest of our area.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Make sure the drainage slots are not blocked
- Don’t paint over the silicone
- Avoid blasting the frames with a pressure washer
- Check the mastic once a year
Timber frames need their paint kept up, because bare, wet timber moves more and pulls at the joint. Paint up to the joint, not over the silicone.
A small gap around a frame only grows. As old mastic keeps shrinking, the gap widens, and heat escapes around the frame. Resealing closes it.
What affects the cost of window mastic
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Any mould that needs treating
- Whether the work is at height
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What to tell us for a quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- How we’d reach the joints
- The address or postcode of the job
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
For window mastic in Ashingdon, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email. Tell us what the problem is and where, and you will get a clear quote before we start.
What sealant work can’t fix
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Rotten timber, which needs a joiner first
- Penetrating damp from a failed cavity tray or render
- Faulty window hardware
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Patio & French doors
- Window sills
- Timber windows & doors
- Composite doors
- Aluminium frames
- uPVC windows
What we’re called out for in Ashingdon
Some failures date back to when the windows were fitted. Sealant run over dust, wet brick or loose mortar didn’t grip properly, and it lets go sooner than it should.
People usually contact us when they notice one of these:
- Water coming in at the bottom corners of a door
- Mastic that’s falling out in pieces
- Cracked internal joints between frame and plaster
- White mastic on grey or black frames
Schools such as King Edmund School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.
